Need to add a vet the OL group
CB room looks a little thin
11 DL's seems like overkill to me
I'm ok with 4 LB's

The Colts already have a visit scheduled tomorrow with CB Mike Hilton. And there were some interesting CB waivers across the league that they might try to claim through the wire.

And if they are planning to make a waiver claim, the corresponding move may be to cut one of the DL.

I was going to suggest bringing in Mike Hilton. Yep, add to the O-Line and subtract one of the 6 DT's.

Naw.....

The "March for Arch" is real....

We are going to let opponent throw for 500 yards per game against us.

Seeing both Johnson II and Smith make the team is super surprising and doesn't make a lot of sense. I honestly thought there was a decent chance neither of them would make the 53. I would have preferred that they had kept Land over both Johnson and Smith, or had kept someone like Treadwell, Owen, Bentley, or Brents over both of them. Although that's probably a moot point b/c I'm sure one of them will be waived to make room for Hilton and/or a waiver claim.

Here's who I'm hoping we get on our PS from our cuts:

WR Treadwell*
LP Ajiake
QB Bean
RB Bentley IV
CB Brents*
DE Land*
RB Noel
WR Owen
G Sills
CB Womack III*
TE Woods*

*realize chances are pretty small they make it past waivers or are not signed by another team.

The Colts could sign Mike Hilton to the practice squad for the time being. Give him a week or two to adjust to the team. And he could always be elevated for game days if needed.

I know that Treadwell had a good camp and preseason...but you also need to remember that over the last 3 seasons, he pulled in a grand total of 7 receptions. So I would be surprised if there was a ton of interest for him.

I’m not sure there would be any point in keeping Bean. Leonard is clearly better.
